The quality checklist will simply ensure you don’t miss anything important. Items or steps that have not been achieved may also open discussions on relative matters. A checklist is an effective tool for systematic recording, performance assessment, and evaluation. It is also a good method to track progress over a period of time.

The goal of your checklist(s) is to provide a tool for service providers to convey detailed reminders and instructions, while not adding unnecessary complexity to their work. Toward that goal, we recommend that your checklists not be overloaded with standard cleaning tasks that a service provider knows to do, such as cleaning the toilet or the kitchen sink.
